Question: Tapo P115 Energy Data

[tuvok81]

Hello Guys, my first question is .. is this possible to read with the python script the Energy data from the device? When yes.. where i get the Username and Passwort... in the App i can not find them thanks

[mihai-dinculescu]

Yes, it is possible, and this example shows you how. The username and password are the e-mail and password you use to log into the TP-Link mobile app.

AH ok thank you but i think i have a other fail ..

python tapo_p110.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/websdr/Downloads/tapo_p110.py", line 61, in <module> asyncio.run(main()) File "/usr/lib/python3.10/asyncio/runners.py", line 44, in run return loop.run_until_complete(main) File "/usr/lib/python3.10/asyncio/base_events.py", line 649, in run_until_complete return future.result() File "/home/websdr/Downloads/tapo_p110.py", line 15, in main client = ApiClient(tapo_username, tapo_password) TypeError: argument 'tapo_username': 'NoneType' object cannot be converted to 'PyString'

[mihai-dinculescu]

It looks like it's complaining that the tapo_username variable is empty.

The example is trying to read it from an environment variable. Have you set the environment variables? The README has a section on that.

[tuvok81]

I'm not that good at programming things... I'll see if I can find something

thanks

[tuvok81]

hm i dont no .. iam to stupid for this manual ..

[mihai-dinculescu]

On Linux/Mac you can give values to environment variables like this

export TAPO_USERNAME=your-tapo-@email.com
export TAPO_PASSWORD=your-tapo-password
export IP_ADDRESS=192.168.1.XXX

On Windows you can do it with

set TAPO_USERNAME=your-tapo-@email.com
set TAPO_PASSWORD=your-tapo-password
set IP_ADDRESS=192.168.1.XXX

[tuvok81]

OK .. i have add the username and password and Ip here

    tapo_username = os.getenv("@gmx.de")
    tapo_password = os.getenv("**")
    ip_address = os.getenv("192.168.168.21")

and where i add the export lines? at the top of the script? i use Linux Ubunut .. and SORRY for the many stupid questions..

[tuvok81]

OK i have see my poetry make some things ..

pipx upgrade poetry poetry is already at latest version 1.6.1 (location: /root/.local/pipx/venvs/poetry)

poetry install

The lock file is not compatible with the current version of Poetry. Upgrade Poetry to be able to read the lock file or, alternatively, regenerate the lock file with the poetry lock command.

no idea

[tuvok81]

Puhh.. i have no idea .. what i do here ..

Looks like the environment variables are still not read properly.

Try the following:

1. Change the variable definitions in examples/tapo_p110 back to the original version:

   let tapo_username = env::var("TAPO_USERNAME")?;
   let tapo_password = env::var("TAPO_PASSWORD")?;
   let ip_address = env::var("IP_ADDRESS")?;

2. Before executing cargo run --example tapo_p110 execute the following commands @mihai-dinculescu suggested above on your Linux shell using your own credentials and the IP of your device:

   
   export TAPO_USERNAME=your-tapo-@email.com
   export TAPO_PASSWORD=your-tapo-password
   export IP_ADDRESS=192.168.1.XXX

cargo run --example tapo_p110

OK the last step is the poetry Problem @pwoerndle can you help here?

poetry shell

I'm not super familiar with the python build, but did you run poetry install before running poetry shell?

If your just interested in trying out and you don't need to build from source, you could also just use pip to install the tapo module and then run the example.

pip install tapo

export TAPO_USERNAME=your-tapo-@email.com
export TAPO_PASSWORD=your-tapo-password
export IP_ADDRESS=192.168.1.XXX

python examples/tapo_p110.py

[tuvok81]

i haved do pip install tapo and poetry install .. before i run .. i have not copy this from the shell sorry
